I've spent hours trying to get powerline to work with the patched fonts on OSX and Macvim without any results. This is lightweight, simple and just worked out of the box. Also the light theme is amazing. THANK YOU!

You can use Powerline without a patched font. Set the separator accordingly it won't use fancy symbols.
